Chapter 953: Using The Spear To Attack The Kid’s Shield

Wind and sand spread through the air as killing intent charged into the clouds. Hundreds of thousands of armored soldiers were charging into the wilderness and killing one another.

Corpses were laid out everywhere. Sand patches were dyed a dark red color with fresh blood.

This was the northwest of Yuanlian World in a place known as West Gravel Plains. It wasn’t an important place but there was an intense battle going on.

This place had no key points to defend, however, there were many large-sized green patches of land that allowed troops to cross through.

Zhuang Yu stood on a sand dune and quietly looked on at the battlefield below.

They were on the road to a great victory! The Alliance Army of the east countries had close to 130 corpses laid on the ground!

At this moment, their war rewards were swiftly increasing!

Tens of thousands of Elite Cavalry were chasing from behind, splitting up, stopping, chasing, causing the enemy formation to break apart!

A full 200,000 infantry troops along with 200,000 Big Dipper Swordsman and 10,000 Xuandu Guards were close behind. They moved at their fastest pace, claiming lives whilst pushing through their exhaustion.

They were really intense and their morale was high!

Zhuang Yu had gone through a dozen such winning battles in a short few months.

He had probed at the start to him but then tossed aside all considerations and attacked maniacally at the end.

Although he killed 100,000 today, it didn’t affect his emotions at all.

On the contrary, the hidden exhaustion on the faces of the cavalry and infantry troops made him worried.

Within 10 days, they covered 4,000 miles. Even elites made out of iron wouldn’t be able to take this.

Even an army who won 100 out of 100 battles would still collapse sooner or later.

If his assessment was accurate, he would still need to push his troops forward to save the situations all around.

Zhuang Yu frowned as the green veins on his fists burst out. In the end, he released his grip and sighed.

He had commanded troops for so many years, but he had never felt so helpless.

He has used close to half the number of troops to defend tens of thousands of miles of defensive lines.

They were in trouble in every direction.

Actually, according to him, the best method would be to take the initiative to strike out, using attack as the best form of defense. He would strike the crucial points to force the enemy to fight to the death!

Only then could they use their strengths to cover up their weaknesses.

Surging in every direction to defend would be really tough and extremely difficult to manage.

However...

Great Gan Celestial Dynasty didn’t have enough strength.

“Commander Yu! I think we can call back the troops. Although the enemy has collapsed, our troops are already very tired. We need to defend just in case...”

Advisor Mu Liao’s reminder could be heard from behind, bringing him to his senses as he continued to face forward.

He hesitated a little and was very reluctant, however, he still nodded, “Order the troops to stop and rest where they are! After all, the post-battle matters, the cleaning of the battlefield and the consoling of the troops has to be done appropriately.”

In the desert, the locally produced horses of Yuanlian World couldn’t dash quickly and could often only be used as mounts.

However, when Zong Shou arrived in the world, he brought a total of 100,000 Windrider and Cloud Stepping Foals. They could step in the air and within the desert they were totally unrestricted and it could totally use their abilities.

The Black Fox Iron Cavalry that had increased to 7,000 now had gone through hundreds of battles and their strength far exceeded the Xuan Grade Dao Soldiers of the Xuandu Guards.

Wherever their horses went, they were pretty much unstoppable!

This was why Zhuang Yu wanted to use the cavalry advantage to wipe out the enemy to destroy the northwest elites so as to reduce the pressure in future battles.

However, the outcome today was a little unideal or maybe his hopes were too high.

The enemy General was also really intelligent. It was like he didn’t care about the outcome of the battle and knew how to preserve the strength of his troops.

Turning his head around, Zhuang Yu looked back to the Young Advisor behind him with a praising eye.

Recalling his name and memorizing it, Zhuang Yu turned back around and headed back to the Commander tent.

At this moment, the Great Gan Celestial Dynasty not only lacked troops, they also lacked Generals.

This person was not threatened by his prestige and was able to remind him in time. It was obvious that he was bold and intelligent.

However, he heard Mu Liao discussing.

“We still lack troops! If not, why would we let these bunch of rabbits escape?”

“It is all Country Ruler’s fault. A year ago, Commander had informed the countries to prepare their troops. However, till today they only increased their number of soldiers by 20%, what’s the use then?”

“We can’t blame a woman’s cooking for being bad if she doesn’t have rice. The enemy’s reinforcements seem endless. Where did they get so much strength and finances?”

“I heard that half a year ago just Xuanling Guild sent at least 17 Spaceships. They brought a total of three million armors. What about us?”

“To think that those Country Rulers have been delaying on all the rations and replenishments. They didn’t want to increase their taxes either! Have they not heard that if there is no skin, then there is no hair left?”

“If this goes on, who knows how long we will be able to last for?”

Zhuang Yu’s brow rose up. This time it could be considered a huge victory.

However, why did Mu Liao have to say all this? Disrupting the morale of the troops, he really deserved to be killed!

He wanted to chide him, but for some reason he kept quiet and acted like he didn’t hear it.

Just looking at one leaf, one would know that it is autumn, even trees could sense the changes in the seasons.

Someone who was even slightly smart would have been able to observe the current situation.

How was he supposed to boost morale and stop his troops from having such thoughts?

Although he was filled with grievances in his heart, he just needed 30% more troops, a million soldiers and he wouldn’t be in such a tough situation.

But he felt helpless. The people the Ruler chose when he left were all the skilled people who were really kind and righteous and had their own beliefs.

He was like the new Country Ruler of Xuan Country He Rendao. At this moment, the people of the Southwest were in trouble. Increased taxes to fight the enemy, how was it different from before?

In just half a year, it would cause the people under him to have a tough life and they might lose their homes once more.

Due to the conflicting ideals in his heart, Zhuang Yu was able to bear with the situation, barely holding on.

He shook his head as he rode his horse back and charged into his tent.

He considered all things and had been through 10 sleepless nights. Even he, with his Celestial Realm Cultivation, couldn’t take it anymore. He really wanted to just dive right down and have a good sleep to get away from this bothersome matter.

However, the moment he entered, a sense of danger rose up in his heart.

A glow flashed in his eyes, he flipped his hand and took out a golden sword and slashed down furiously toward the side!

With a giant “pula”, the grinding on the battlefield, the Martial Path that had been trained and improved thousands of times resulted in this sword strength being raised to its extreme. However, he also gave out a shocking sharp ring to warn the people outside of the tent.

The space was totally ripped open.

He didn’t truly rip open and break the space but he broke the Illusionary Technique. A person appeared inside with a bright glow in his eyes.

Instantly, dozens of talismans inside his sleeves gathered on his right hand, causing his arm to be as firm as gold as he dotted out with a finger.

A weird strength caused the soundwave to totally disappear. It was totally suppressed.

The finger and the sword clashed, intents struck one another and the energy entangled.

Just as the intense storm was about to explode out, the person waved his sleeves and destroyed the energy, causing it to disappear completely.

He smiled, “What sharp methods Commander Yu! Your Sword Path attainments are the best in Yuanlian World. I have no bad intentions, can you just stop and discuss with me?”

Zhuang Yu looked over and he was stunned.

“You are Tianfang Guild’s Tanjing?”

Although he had never met this person, he recognized him long ago.

He knew that after that battle this person didn’t leave and instead remained outside of Yuanlian World.

The eastern countries working together to attack them definitely had something to do with him.

However, he stopped his sword. When he entered the tent, the person in front of him did have killing intent.

However, after he noticed that he couldn’t stop him, he cast aside his animosity.

Zhuang Yu also knew that he couldn’t take him down and there was no need for him to take the risk of fighting him head-on.

It wasn’t that he was a coward and it wasn’t that he was arrogant. At this moment, the safety of the foundations of the Great Gan Celestial Dynasty in Yuanlian World all depended on him.

As a Commander, he knew how to take into account his own situation.

Moreover, although the person in front of him could hide for a period of time, in just a moment, his subjects would notice that something was up.

With them working together, taking him down would be much easier than if he tried to do so alone.

“That’s right! It is my honor for Commander Yu to actually recognize me.”

Tanjing smiled and nodded, “I came here specifically to talk to Commander Yu...”

Zhuang Yu’s gaze was really flat as he looked only at the tip of his sword.

“There is nothing to talk about between us!”

“That might not be true.”

Tanjing shook his head, “Are you really going to hang your hopes of living on this dead tree? You yourself know about the Yuanlian World situation. How long can you last, a month, two or three?”

When Zhuang Yu heard this, his disdain grew, “If you are here for such nonsense, then there is no need to speak anymore. How long we can last, what the outcome is, we will know on the battlefield!”

“I have witnessed your skill and I understand.”

Tanjing smiled, seemingly unfazed, “On the battlefield, you can go up against several times your enemies with a weak army. However, can you fight against hundreds of Celestial Cultivators to resolve the Yuanlian problem and save the Great Gan Celestial Dynasty?”

Zhuang Yu’s expression turned solemn as he looked across in shock. What did he mean?

Tanjing spoke casually, “No wonder Brother Zhuang doesn’t know! Common People’s Path is in great danger. Zong Shou made them his ally and once they die, he will be all alone! Why would he bother about Yuanlian World? At that time, even the Sword Sect and Buddhist Faction would leave. Commander Yu, am I right?”

Ripples had appeared in Zhuang Yu’s eyes and he was completely shocked. He didn’t know whether Tanjing was actually speaking the truth?

“I am definitely not lying! Moreover, Zong Shou hasn’t shown himself for a long time. Who knows if he is dead or alive. Even if he is alive, I will ensure that he has no strength to turn the tides!”

Seemingly knowing what Zhuang Yu was thinking about, Tanjing’s expression was really solemn and he made an oath.

“Commander Yu, let me ask you, do you still want to be buried along with this so-called Great Gan Celestial Dynasty? Although you are loyal, you have to think for the millions of people of the southeast.”

Zong Shou used the future of Yuanlian World to convince Zhuang Yu.

At this moment, he was using the spear to attack the kid’s shield!
